I could use a hug today, I feel a bit neglected

I don't think anyone is meaning to neglect me, but I did pour my heart out today in a post about 8am, about mourning my healthy life and talking about my fear of a returning depression and I could use a hug. I guess I am just looking at myself more critically now that life has slowed down a bit and I get a little scared. PennyGruetzps. To give you a bit of background, my last depression started in June 2004, I could feel myself slipping under a bit everyday and then in Sept 2004, I really plummeted until about Dec 2004, when I started coming up for air and feeling myself again. I am very afraid that it might happen again. Now I feel normal other than being in pain quite a bit. It is hard to explain.

Wow, how true that is. You said exactly what I wanted to say, only you said it better. As soon as I stopped being nothing but a dark cloud of doom and gloom, I started to get more calls and asked to go places again. Of course, I didn't actually get to go, lol. But that's another story..... I was supposed to go out this weekend, but ended up in the house again. Maybe next weekend will be better...

Re: I could use a hug today, I feel a bit neglected

Dear Penny, Do you know how mentally healthy you are??Do tell us that you feel neglected and need a hug??That is a sign of mental health. I have suffered allmy life from very low-grade depression. I have neverbeen so low that I could not get out of bed, but I'vebeen there where I didn't care if I died. It does notfeel good, and I found that no one wanted to be aroundme because I was doom and gloom... then I'd realize mynon-verbal behaviour is what kept them away!! LOL...what a vicious cycle. The more we need folks sometimesthe harder we push them away.Here is a Big Cyber Hug for you!!{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUG}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}-Ruth
